Abstract

A pellicle is proposed in which the agglutinant layer which enable the pellicle to be adhered to a photomask is doped with a mechanoluminescent material so that the uniformness of the thickness of the agglutinant layer can be confirmed, when the pellicle is adhered to the photomask, by observing visually or by CCD camera for any irregularity in the pattern of the light emitted from the agglutinant layer.
